Anonymous Coward User ID: 177623 United States 03/22/2007 01:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If you have 2 SATA ports on your motherboard The first one is master The second one is slave. Now you can list the SATA drive to boot or the SATA raid controller on the motherbaord to boot as the first boot device before an IDE drive. Or list the IDE drive as the first boot device in the hard drive boot priority in your BIOS. Hope that makes more sense. |

bilthy User ID: 165856 Canada 03/22/2007 02:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sata is seperate from ide so it doesn't matter, select the boot drive from the bios. Depending on what os you have you may need a sata drivers disk for the os installation to recognize the drive. Older versions of windows setup won't recognize sata drives without a driver disk when it prompts you to hit f2 to install scsi or raid drivers.

YibbiY User ID: 140735 United States 03/22/2007 02:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You can 1) download the sata drivers to a floppy and boot the windows cd installer. Hit F6 (I Think) in the beginning to load additional drivers. or 2) Use windows xp sp2 installer disk which automatically loads sata drivers. As people noted before make sure your BIOS points to the correct hard drive for boot sequence. |

Your fine, I have a SATA as my main boot drive, and 2 ATA IDE drives as secondaries for storage. So Heidi, tell me why you aren't watching porn right now? |

Quoting: CountryCan I install an IDE hard drive also? I know I can't set it as 'slave' since it has its own connection, so how will this effect my SATA boot-up? You CAN set a single IDE drive on a controller as a slave, you can NOT set 2 drives on the same control channel as both slaves (OR as both masters). If your MB has standard IDE ports, you can add IDE drives, and it should have no effect on booting from the SATA, though you may have to change a setting in the CMOS to make sure you boot from SATA, or just don't format the IDE drives as primary partitions. - |
